News reports indicate that an employee of a major steel company has died after falling into a molten iron bucket which was at 1600 deg C. The investigation will reveal the cause of the tragic incident.
I want to share an incident in another company I heard about few years back, where an engineer fell into a shredding machine that was operating. The fall was due to an open manhole, left open by maintenance. The engineer did not see the open manhole and fell into it. The maintenance crew had taken a break and left without barricading or closing the manhole cover.
